News: State Senate Passes Jan. 15 Primary In Michigan

By Marc Ambinder

Aug 22 2007, 12:02 PM ET Comment

The Michigan State Senate just passed a bill establishing a joint presidential primary on Jan. 15.

All the chambers' Republicans voted yes; all the chambers' Democrats voted no.

Many Democrats objected on technical grounds.

The bill will now have to be reconciled with a version passed by the state house of representatives.

Gov. Jennifer Granholm is eager to sign the bill.

More analysis, later.
